This 12-week immersive training integrates the depth of the Core Training with the applied, practice-based approach of Power-Conscious Restorative and Integrative Practices (PCRIP). Designed for practitioners, leaders, helpers, and anyone committed to navigating power with greater integrity, this course supports you in understanding and embodying power-consciousness in both personal and professional relationships.
Over 12 weeks (2 hours per week), you’ll explore your own relationship with power, expand your awareness of systemic and relational dynamics, and build practical skills for addressing power in conflict, repair, and everyday interactions. Through conceptual learning, embodied practices, collaborative model-making, and community dialogue, this program offers a comprehensive pathway into power-conscious leadership and facilitation.
In This Integrated Training, You Will:
- Deepen your understanding of personal, role, systemic, and status power—and how they shape relationships and conflict.
- Navigate power differentials with greater skill and awareness.
- Distinguish identities from status power and see how each influences connection and belonging.
- Work with shadow aspects of power, including shame, harm, and reactivity.
- Develop embodied awareness and regulation practices for grounded presence and choicefulness.
- Apply the Restorative Integration Pyramid to relationship building, maintenance, and repair.
- Strengthen generative, restorative, and power-conscious conflict skills.
- Use practical communication tools such as nuanced feedback, intention vs. impact, and accountability.
- Learn in community and co-create models that support ongoing power-conscious practice.
